Re: "YamaYork" YCB-826s CC - $30,000
Have you SEEN beef jerky prices these days?

What are the current beef jerky prices? And how much beef jerky would it have taken to acquire this ...

Re: "YamaYork" YCB-826s CC - $30,000
A longstanding joke between my wife and me... the old Ronco food dehydrator commercial program from the 90s, where Ron Popeil shows us how it can make homemade beef jerky, because jerky is "so darn expensive these days." :laugh:
So anything that's expensive, we remark of it as being "so ...

That actually is really cool, and must have relatively tight wrap for a full circle eb helicon, as nothing else looks out of proportion.

Re: Dirt cheap Conn 10j BBb (ebay)
Me too in this case, but i failed in the past month or two ago on an even cheaper (and much worse condition with like 5-10 patches on the bell, and slides and valves in the wrong place)
The beggar king would approve of busking with it (hence it was perfect for me.)

Re: Dirt cheap Conn 10j BBb (ebay)
Did you succumb to the sweet siren song of the cheap 10j in pretty good condition? The 10 minute gap between your post and the sold date means you put up a heroic struggle.

Re: Air moving through the horn
One way to get shouted down (most anywhere) is to state the obvious.
Down is a weird direction to shout... which seems obvious.
Does it take more or less breath than ordinary shouting?
I guess i don't get it.
Down is easier than up because you're going with the direction of gravity ...

Re: New Alexanders at Wichita Band (163 CC, 164 BBb, 155 F)
Common sense tip: the store has its own website, whose prices reflect the lack of ebay mark up, if memory serves.
The one time i bought something from them that i recall, they were really patient with me as my road trips through Kansas took more than 6 months to align with store hours.

Re: Educate a slide guy on valves

I feel like I'm missing something about playing valves. I get stuck in a single gear on euph - I can't play soft, only loud. Sometimes certain partials won't speak easily.
I'll pay more attention for this...
I wonder if the change in shape (maybe resulting in different resistance?) might ...
